[cisco-voip] CallerID accross translation patterns

[Nikola Stojsin]

This is what happens -

1) an outside caller, say (123) 456-7890, calls one of the DIDs, say (901)
234-5601;

2) the PRI receives the last four digits of the DID (5601), where it is
picked up by the translation pattern, 56XX-8000, and sent to 8000 (8000
being Unity Opening Greeting handler);

3) in Unity, the caller selects a user extension, say 1234;

4) 1234 user's phone displays the last four digits of the called DID (5601;
i.e "From 5601"), instead of the number of outside caller (123-456-7890). 

Hope it is less confusing now.

Now two things are interesting here: if I eliminate Unity out of the
equation - by translating 56XX to an user extension (1234) - the problem
remains, and "From 56XX" is displayed on the user's phone; also, if user
Nikola Stojsin eliminates the gateway out of the equation - by calling one
of the 56XX numbers from the inside (say, 5601), the end user's phone
displays the name of the user, in addition to the 56XX number (that is,
"From Nikola Stojsin (5601)").

Any help, as always, is greatly appreciated.

Nikola

You mean you are getting the DNIS on the ANI field? I am a bit confused.

A company got an additional DID range, which they will not assign for a few
months. Until it is assigned, they would like the range to point to the
company (Unity 4.x) operator greeting. I thought the easiest thing would be
to use the translation pattern - and it works - but phones display the DID
(last 4 digits sent by the telco, in fact), not the originating party. It is
a MGCP PRI (the company needs the name in the CallerID, so H323 is out),
CallManager 4.2.x.

Funny thing, I remember doing this before, but I cannot remember how!

Under what circumstances would you be translating the caller ID to begin
with?  Routing is generally done by DNIS, or DNIS translations.
